SLSD Health Update

Posted on: September 13, 2021
COVID

When we see significant numbers of students and / or staff out due to COVID, we will shift to either universal masking or remote instruction. Like last year, we will do this by building to start. It is important that families are prepared for either scenario.

When there is universal masking in schools, students do not miss face to face instruction due to quarantine.  Since universal masking went into effect at the junior school on September 3 and at the high school on September 7, 96 students who would have otherwise been forced to quarantine due to being close contacts, have been able to remain in school.  This means that as many as 768 days of face-to-face instruction have been preserved.  As we have said numerous times, our #1 priority is safety and keeping kids learning IN SCHOOL.
